THPedia:About THPedia

The primary purpose of H+Pedia is to spread accurate, accessible, non-sensationalistic information about transhumanism among the general public. H+Pedia is also an opportunity for transhumanist enthusiasts to work together, thereby strengthening the transhumanist community. H+Pedia welcomes constructive contributions from everyone interested in the future of humanity.

Contributors policy

H+Pedia is an open project, meaning that anyone may contribute either under their own name and public identity, or pseudo-anonymously via a preferred username.

The project focuses on techno-optimistic and realistic futuristic thought and trend analysis, rather than taking a popularist position that dystopian scenarios are inevitable and unavoidable.

Original research is welcomed at H+Pedia, however such contributions are expected to draw heavily upon reliable resources and other internal H+Pedia references.

Users who hold a specialist interest or expertise are invited to write about this on their user page or article page to better contextualise their contributions.

Etiquette

As with Wikipedia, discussions should to be focused around the content of a contribution rather than the user who made it. However in the event that an individual is sufficiently disruptive to the H+Pedia project or wider community they may no longer be allowed to contribute.
